i just downloaded opera 12.18 to see how it compares to opera 36
So, how?
i tried out opera 12.18 and yes it was quite slow compared to opera 36 which was to be expected.

Have you tried Vivaldi 1.0 now it's out of beta?....https://vivaldi.com/?lang=en
How does Vivaldi make money? I assume it isn't cause they're swell guys. Maybe they are(like foobar2000), but the lack of sources in that case is puzzling. If they aren't being altruistic, how are they paid?
I have been using vivaldi for a few months now and had ublock origin installed from the beginning. I've never had it lost or wiped after an update.Same as Edge, I want to give Vivaldi a real try, but not without extensions. Namely ad-blocking.
I know I can manually install a Chrome add-on in Vivaldi, but it gets lost/wiped on update. I'll wait for official support.

Ticks all the boxes as a worthy replacement, imo :thumbsup:Vivaldi is a freeware web browser developed by Vivaldi Technologies, a company founded by Opera Software co-founder and former CEO Jon Stephenson von Tetzchner and Tatsuki Tomita.[5][6] The browser is aimed at staunch technologists, heavy Internet users, and previous Opera web browser users disgruntled by Opera's transition from the Presto layout engine to the Blink layout engine, which removed many popular features in the process.[5][7] Vivaldi aims to revive the old, popular features of Opera 12 and introduce new, more innovative ones.[8] The browser is updated weekly, in the form of "Snapshots", and has gained popularity since the launch of its first technical preview.[9]
On November 3, 2015, Vivaldi Technologies launched the first beta of the Vivaldi web browser and announced that the browser's technical previews had been downloaded more than 2 million times.[10][11]
On April 6, 2016, Vivaldi Technologies released Vivaldi 1.0, the browser's first stable release.[12]

Not just with Opera 36 and newer,but all of my other Chrome-based browsers(at the moment,SRWare Iron and Google Chrome portable..)...they won't connect to the internet.
Opera 12.18(Presto engine-based),IE 11,and Firefox all connect just fine.
What's going on here?
